Kaz, a brave attempt - at least you tried .... :clap: :clap: :clap:

I have a beef .

Brit pop and prog , joined h/s , knowing what it was about . They are welcomed . loaned equipment and allowed to discuss NEBO ad infinitum .

one piss take and they strop off like a women who spent the nite in hotel with ched evans.

and then make up the biggest load of bullshit I have read in my life to justify their actions .

if I was a cynical man , I would suggest there membership was a macca orchestrated attempt to reduce the level of critigue aimed at il ducky the man who doesn't change nappies ;)

Well I don't agree, I like Brit and Proggy and yes they would prefer me to shut up and just promote NVA here, and yes they have loyalties on the other side, both have been there for a lot longer than here and have loads of personal experiences with them because of NEBO, but they have never met any of us!!

I think we tend to see devils where there are none sometimes because of the manipulation of the truth and reality by Marco, as he has just done with Kaz. I recently had a go at Macca, but I am still convinced he wanted to mod on AoS to pull it back in line. But he is squashed (mentally and physically) by Marco. I don't think Brit and Proggy have any agenda to act for Marco, I just wish they wouldn't constantly tell me I should change without approaching the source of the problems similarly in Marco. They would get very short shrift for that.

Kaz then you let him win, that is what he wants. There is no reason to ban you, but he has managed it without his members knowing. It just looks like you have stopped posting to them. Hopefully AoS readers here will make that point there, and if the block is released just carry on, don't promote just be you and your system, past and present.

All good, now fully regenerated :guiness; Circumspect Louis Vuitton (dodgy baggage) is not for me. See what I did there?

I've said it before on here and even got banned from AOS for saying it but I don't get why there is so much unrest, bullying and aggressive behaviour on Hi-Fi forums. For something that is meant to be a pleasurable hobby (Hi-Fi and Music) I don't understand the sheer level of hatred.

I completely understand the Marco vs Doc situation based on the disgusting threats once made. I also understand that AOS is run by this man and he seems to control everything that happens on it (but then aren't most forums), which includes banning anyone who disagrees with him (again aren't most forums). However I still don't understand why it matters and why we should care. If you don't like something, then stop doing it, in this case stop reading, reviewing and commenting on something you all dislike so much. There is nearly 1200 pages of commenting on how we all dislike AOS, I'd much prefer it if there was 1200 pages of knowledge and experience sharing to do with hi-fi and music.

It would almost be better to run two forums, one for purely hi-fi and music and then another called 'wehatetheartofsound.com' where it's dedicated purely to anti AOS/Marco chat. I guess some would say this is what HFS is for, but it always seems a shame to me.

I'm a member of loads of other forums from cars, cooking, computers, IT and design and I've never seen bad behaviour like this. It's childish and I wish one side of the party would take the higher ground and give up fighting and just enjoy our hobby.

And to add a further positive, I sincerely feel that awkwardbydesign came across well :clap: I salute your dedication to reviewing post 26! To sum up, 50% comedy gold, 50% worrying study on how paranoia can impact on the truth.

Dan, proving my previous point exactly.

One part of me thinks sod this for a game of soldiers, I'll leave them to it and Dan can have his knitting circle back the way he likes it.

Another part of me thinks that would be a tragedy and won't give Dan his way and will stick around to call him out.

Right now that's the part which is winning :lol:

I would accept and understand this far more Brit if you did the same thing at AoS.
